Local printing
Note: All Windows operating
systems support parallel
connections. However, only the
Windows 98/Me and Windows
2000 operating systems support
USB connections. Some UNIX,
Linux, and Macintosh computers
also support USB connections.
Consult your computer
documentation to see if your
system supports USB.
You can attach your printer locally using either the standard USB port
or parallel port. A USB port is standard on all printer models.
If you install an optional USB/Parallel Interface Card to the network or
duplex network printer model, you need a 1284 A-C parallel cable.
If you have installed an optional Tri-Port Adapter, you can locally
attach the printer with a serial cable. For details on LocalTalk or
infrared connections, refer to the documentation that shipped with the
Tri-Port Adapter.
Check your point of purchase for appropriate cable part numbers.
